    Tele string change?

    Yes - it came with those strings. Can anyone recommend a set for playing blues?

    Tele string change?

    Hi all, I bought this a few moths ago and I notice that the B and high E strings are not staying in tune aswell as they used to. I always wipe the fret board after use and the strings look clean. Time to change? Also how do I know what gauge Im using?

    What you think of guitar shredders?

    Good at what they do I suppose but I once witnessed a classical player and metal head shredder go head to head in a music shop. The classical player won by a country mile! I prefer light rock/funk and jazz players to be honest, musically they are more creative imo. Shredders have too much to prove.

    Do you ever get days where......

    Cheers man, i look at other players on youtube sometimes but i think its time to stop for a while. I was actually considering selling my gear off and giving it up it because I was getting bored with it. I guess all I needed was some inspiration. Cheers

    Do you ever get days where......

    You feel like your not going to get any better as a player? Or you depend on the internet too much to learn from others. Or maybe you see a cool riff and you learn it and you say to yourself "I should have thought that one up myself"! Granted im only back playing a few months (had a guitar about...

    VOX Valvetronix and stomp boxes

    Hi folks, Just wondering If anyone has had any experience of using effects pedals with this amp? I have a (cheap) wah pedal that seems to make a nice warm tone sound kinda 'dead' even when its used as a volume pedal. I read somewhere that these amps dont like pedals in front of them...

    Marshall Amps

    Personally I think Marshall's are over rated and over priced. I'd go for Fender or Roland.

    Vox update

    Input Jack Hi all, I have a valvetronix AD50 and havent had any problems with it (not gigging yet). Anyway regarding the 'jack' coming loose, why not just permanently leave the guitar cable plugged in? In other words stop plugging it in and out everytime you want to practice?

    Yeah just a bit, although I managed to get mine for 1,500 euro, the shop treated me like royalty!
